KKK launches neighborhood watch for Pennsylvania community

If you’re worried that a wizard has banded together to form a neighborhood watch in your community, don’t. It’s not Voldemort; it’s just the Ku Klux Klan.

Harrisburg’s PennLive reports a local Pennsylvania chapter of the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan is responding to a series of break-ins in the area of Ridge Road in Fairview Township.

Imperial Wizard and President Frank Ancona says his watch is just like any other and does not target a specific ethnicity.

“We don’t hate people,” Ancona said. “We are an organization who looks out for our race. We believe in racial separation. God created each species after its kind and saw that it was good.”

The group’s fliers have attracted attention, especially for it’s Uncle Sam-like KKK figure with the words: “You can sleep tonight knowing the Klan is awake!” and a 24-hour “Klanline.”

The United States Supreme Court ruled Monday, April 7, 2003, that states can punish Ku Klux Klansmen and others who set crosses afire, finding that a burning cross is an instrument of racial terror so threatening that it overshadows free speech concerns.
